At the core of the Milwaukee M18™ FORGE battery platform is breakthrough design powered by the latest cell technology. The REDLITHIUM FORGE 12.0 Ah and 8.0 Ah batteries use Tabless Cell technology to deliver industry-leading peak power output, superior heat dissipation, and COOL-CYCLE™ thermal regulation for cooler operation and faster charging.
Prefer something lighter? The REDLITHIUM FORGE 6.0 Ah battery features Pouch Cell technology, offering the same performance benefits in a slimmer, more ergonomic form—ideal for overhead work or tight spaces.
It all starts inside. The Milwaukee battery FORGE series features: larger copper contacts, reinforced connectors, and intelligent electronics that deliver sustained high current. You get maximum power with minimal heat build-up—even under extreme loads. The Milwaukee FORGE 6.0 Ah battery offers the same output as the M18 REDLITHIUM HIGH OUTPUT™ HD 12.0 Ah in a smaller, lighter design.
FORGE batteries are fully compatible with all Milwaukee M18 tools, delivering both runtime and elite performance. They integrate seamlessly, while the Milwaukee M12™ tools continue to handle compact, lower-power tasks. Together, the full line of Milwaukee batteries gives professionals the flexibility to power every application, big or small.
Advanced overload protection, thermal safeguards, and rugged construction make the Milwaukee FORGE batteries the highest-performing pack Milwaukee has ever made—ready to power you through the toughest jobs with total confidence.
